Chapter 1 Aerohive AP230 AP230 PRODUCT OVERVIEW The AP230 is a dual-radio, dual-band concurrent access point with a 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n radio with TurboQAM and a 5 GHz 802.11a/n/ac radio with transmit beamforming. Both radios also support Frame Burst mode. The AP230 supports three 802.11 b/g/n MIMO streams and three 802.11ac/a/n MIMO streams simultaneously. The AP230 can provide data rates up to 450 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz 802.11n/g mode, up to 600 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz 802.11n mode with TurboQAM enabled, and 1.
AP230 PRODUCT OVERVIEW Table 1 AP230 hardware components (Continued) Description Power connector There are two ways to power an AP230. You can connect a device to a 100 – 240-volt AC power source by connecting an AC/DC power adapter (available as an option) to the 12 V (1.1A) DC connector. You can also power the device through the ETH0 port from PSE (power sourcing equipment) that is compatible with the 802.3af and 802.3at standards.
Chapter 1 Aerohive AP230 The pin assignments in the Ethernet ports follow the TIA/EIA-568-B standard (see Figure 2 on page 7). The ports accept standard types of Ethernet cable—cat3, cat5, cat5e, or cat6. Because the ports have autosensing capabilities, the wiring termination in the Ethernet cable can be either straight-through or cross-over.

Chapter 1 Aerohive AP230 Through the RJ45 console port, you can make a serial connection between your management system and the AP. The pin-to-signal mapping of the RJ45 console port is shown in Figure 2 on page 7. Aggregate and Redundant Interfaces By default ETH0 and ETH1 act as two individual Ethernet interfaces. When both interfaces are connected to the network and are in backhaul mode, the AP transmits broadcast traffic only through ETH0.
AP230 PRODUCT OVERVIEW Redundant Interface If a single Ethernet link provides sufficient bandwidth and speed, such as a 1000 Mbps link, but you want to ensure link redundancy, you can connect the two Ethernet ports to the same switch—or to two different switches—and configure them to act as a redundant interface called "red0". In this mode, only one Ethernet interface is actively forwarding traffic at any one time.
Chapter 1 Aerohive AP230 Reset Button You can reset the device or restore the factory default settings using the Reset button. Insert a paper clip or similar tool into the Reset pinhole and press the button. To reboot the device, press the button for 5 seconds. To return the configuration to the factory default settings, press it for at least 10 seconds. After releasing the button, the indicator light goes dark, and then glows steady amber while the firmware loads and the system performs a self-test.
AP230 PRODUCT OVERVIEW Ceiling Mount Options You can mount the AP230 in either a square or diagonal mount on a dropped ceiling track. To mount in a square position, use the built-in hardware on the back of the device to install it directly to the ceiling track. For the diagonal position, first attach the diagonal mount bracket to the ceiling track and then install the AP230 to the diagonal bracket in the same manner as you would attach it to the track directly for the square position.
Chapter 1 Aerohive AP230 Diagonal Ceiling Mount To mount the AP230 to a track in a dropped ceiling in the diagonal position you must first attach the diagonal bracket to the ceiling track. You may need to drill a small hole in the adjacent ceiling tile to accommodate the cables. Use the following steps and Figure 3 on page 11 to install the AP in a diagonally on a dropped ceiling track. 1. Install the diagonal clip onto the track.
AP230 PRODUCT OVERVIEW Optional Accessories Aerohive offers a variety of optional accessories for the AP230. Contact your sales representative for more information. Device, Power, and Environmental Specifications Understanding the range of specifications for the AP230 is necessary for optimal deployment and device operation.
